Loewen has retired - came ashore at West Palm. Last boat (Howard's Pub) is in around 17:20 Eastern. Lots of bumps and bruises in the fleet. Reports that both Tybee and Castrol flipped simultaneously while fighting for the lead. Newkirk sustained a cut on his leg from the rudder tip after being swept off the boat - it bled for 25 miles or so, but he's glued it shut...

Tough day - two teams out, and one sailor injured and out.

Tomorrow - the Jensen Beach start. Hang in there, Tybee sailors!

After watching Lionel Messi play, I realize I need to sail harder.
